Giving Myself High Five

The accolades continue! First, I'd like to publicly thank my spouse for polishing off the last of the pie in the refrigerator. One temptation down, one bag of unopened white chocolate and peppermint kisses left to go. At least they are unopened.

I'd also like to award myself the Anti-Breakroom Sheild for valor in the workplace today. I was HUNGRY this morning cuz I skipped breakfast (totally unintentional - just ran out of time) and my coffee was not cutting it. I wandered into the breakroom, remembering that there was public fruit in there last week and WHAT should be all over the table?? A smorgasborg (is that how you spell that?) of goodies, that's what! It was someone's birthday and they just went crazy with the treats - chocolate, pumpkin bread, chips, layered dip and other goodies that blinded my eyes and threatened hypnotic power over my brain. Not a banana in sight. I ran like sixty for my office, and was happy to find a clemantine and sugar-free jello hidden in my fridge. Not really a decent breakfast, but it was something non-junky. Way to go, me. (Imagine me giving myself a chuck on the shoulder.) What fantastic things have you all been up to? And, obviously, "fantastic" means anything even remotely healthy that most people could do in their sleep.

I have eaten soup for lunch for 2 days now and I also had a salad for supper last night to avoid having seconds! I have also gotten my sorry butt out of bed and to the Y for 2 days straight at 5:30!!! Yeah me......

Hooray for you!! I don't know how you get out of bed like that. I'd have to go to bed at like 9:30.

I do most of the time! But I do even if I don't get my sorry butt out of bed. I can really tell a difference when I don't go in the mornings and then come to work and sit on my heiny all day. It gets me moving! And I appreciate that 'most' of the women don't feel the need to get ready to go work out at 5:30 AM. I can go with bedhead and drool tracks!
